So im trying to compile the kernel......

I'm trying to compile the kernel so i can use the ati drivers.
i have the PKGBUILD.custom_kernel file in a /var/abs/local/kernal/.

# Contributor: dibblethewrecker <dibblethewrecker.at.jiwe.org>
pkgname=kernel26
pkgver=2.6.11.10
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="I likes the Chicken!"

depends=('module-init-tools')
install=kernel26.install

##### add any patch sources to this section
source=(config ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-$pkgver.tar.bz2 )

getvar() {
  old=$(cat Makefile | grep "^$1")
  echo $(echo ${old/"$1 ="/} | sed -e "s/[ ]*(.*)[ ]*/1/g")

build() {
  cd $startdir/src/linux-$pkgver

and when i try makepkg i get

Re: So im trying to compile the kernel......

first the PKGBUILD needs to be called PKGBUILD not PKGBUILD.custom_kernel - don't know if you have that?

second, if you copied and pasted the file rather than using the actual file check that you have no non-printing MS formating chars at the end of the lines which can screw the pkgbuild up

Re: So im trying to compile the kernel......

is it called just PKGBUILD when you try to makepkg?

Re: So im trying to compile the kernel......

yup - you need to customize the CONFIG_LOCALVERSION variable in you config file or during the configure stage otherwise it produces a name identical to the stock arch kernel - you are the second person this happened to - i will change the wiki
